Just let me hear some of that rock´n´roll music
Any old way you choose it
It´s got a backbeat, you can´t lose it
Any old time you use it
It´s gotta be rock - roll music

If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

I have no kick against modern jazz
Unless they try to play it too darn fast
And change the beauty of the melody
Until it sounds just like a symphony
That´s why I go for that rock´n´roll music
Any old way you choose it
It´s got a backbeat, you can´t lose it
Any old time you use it
It´s gotta be rock - roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

I took my loved one over ´cross the tracks
So she could her my man a - whalin´ sax
I must admit they have a rockin´ band

Man they were goin´ like a hurricane
That´s why I go for that rock´n´roll music
Any old way you choose it
It´s got a backbeat, you can´t lose it
Any old time you use it
It´s gotta be rock - roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
Way down South they gave a jubilee
Them country folks they had a jamboree
They´re drinkin´ home - brew from a wooden cup
The folks dancin´ got all shook up
And started playin´ that rock´n´roll music
Any old way you choose it
It´s got a backbeat, you can´t lose it
Any old time you use it
It´s gotta be rock - roll music
If you wanna dance with me

If you wanna dance with me

Don´t care to hear ´em play the tango
I´m in no mood to dig a mambo
It´s way too early for the congo
So keep a - rockin´ that piano
So I can hear some of that rock´n´roll music
any old way you choose it
It´s got a backbeat, you can´t lose it
Any old time you use it
It´s gotta be rock - roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me
